Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitemoor use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about sink repair in Whitemoor

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

All of Nottingham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Common problems we fix in Whitemoor

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A crack near the taps

What to look for in a quote
